DesignerVista aid tremendously in the development lifecycle
by creating truly usable mockups

We are a wholesale printing company with branded technology tools available for some of our larger
clients. The Web GUI Mockup tools from DesignerVista aid tremendously in the development lifecycle
by creating truly usable mockups ensuring clear direction for software engineers to get it right
on the first pass. The real value proposition DesignerVista software offers us is being able
to load our own branded elements into libraries, getting the exact look and feel from the
beginning before writing code even starts. Organizing page element libraries by client
becomes key to efficient development workflows.

DesignerVista offers more than just the basic goodies

I´am certainly no programmer or graphics artist but with DesignerVista
I am helping our company leap forward with our new software development.
It took very little time to find all the "goodies" like, icons, panels, windows,
bar menus, etc. And it offers more than just the basic goodies, there are lots of
extra items to pick from in each category.
Thank you for making not only this software but selling it for a reasonable price!

Excellent Tool for rapid prototype development

DesignerVista is an excellent tool that allows for rapid prototype development. I have been able to design several complex page design templates in a fraction of the time it would take me to do them in HTML. The ability to drag and drop pre-built web and Windows controls onto a page allows me to change my prototypes on the fly based on the feedback I receive from stakeholders. Several people have been very impressed with the quality of the work produced using DesignerVista.

DesignerVista uses native UI components, very close to the final result after coding

Making mockups has never been so easy and fast than with DesignerVista. The software
has, without any doubts, changed my work as an usability engineer. UI prototypes iterations
are so much faster and so much more time efficient. Plus DesignerVista uses native UI
components, therefore the mockups are very close to the final results after coding. The
best part is that the DesignerVista dev team is really aware of usability problems
and is making great efforts to improve the software after user feedback, the greatest
challenge being to be able to satisfy some of the hardest users, the UI designers and
usability engineers. DesignerVista is definitively my favorite mock-up software and
I'm recommending it to anyone that has an user interface to design and test.

To quickly build prototype screens for Web

Your software is awesome. It makes my PM life so easier to quickly build prototype screens for web
apps to design and explain requirements to my offshore team and to clients. Creating screens for web apps
is matter of minutes and they look very professional. Thanks for making such a great and useful product.
I already recommended to few of my friends.

Quick and Easy to use for Windows based UI designs

It's a great tool, one of the best that I have used. DesignerVista has many of the features that
are required for UI mockups, logical grouping of shapes makes it quick and easy to use for windows based
UI designs. I have used it almost daily since purchasing. Keep up the good work.

Export to HTML-file for a Quick Presentation

On one hand the tool gives me the chance to create for the customer professional
screens (mockups) in a easy way. Especially the export to html-file for a quick presentation
gives the tool a fantastic look. On the other hand it gives an exact idea for the developer
how the application/web portal/tool should look like and decrease working hours a lot.;)

What I enjoy most about your product is what an effective tool it makes for
collaboration. As a Product Manager, I can sit with the various stakeholders for a
product and interactively lay out the user interface. These images can then
in turn be handed off to the development team, who now have a defined starting
point from which to begin the implementation. I have used this approach on a
number of occasions, and in every case, it has made the process not only more
productive, but also more enjoyable.

To create quality GUI screen designs in a reasonable time

We all know time in design saves time in development. We tried many
options to create quality GUI screen designs in a reasonable time and
DesignerVista came out on top.

Nice GUI Design Mockup tool

More than once in consulting work, I've needed a tool to quickly
mockup user interfaces to help client envision the screen interactions,
data structures, and/or overall look-and-feel of a proposed system that
I'm helping define requirements for. As I've seen it, the solutions to
do that are basically limited to: 1) Photoshop (Fireworks, GIMP, etc)
2) Actually creating the screen in an IDE like Delphi, VB, or whatever,
or 3) Visio, using the shapes intended for UI design.

Easy to use tool for exploring UI options

DesignerVista is very intuitive

It's very intuitive. I was designing complex Windows apps in about five minutes.

Tremendous number of controls and widgets

I think DesignerVista´s greatest attribute is the tremendous number of controls, widgets, clip art, icons, etc. available right in the application. Practically anything you might want to put on a screen is already available, and in high quality art. I think it is a very easy-to-use and useful product.

Low cost and great results

In fact DesignerVista is a low cost tool that presents great results. My customer was impressed with the realism of the prototypes (to see examples). Congratulations for the product...
Alysson M. Borgs

What is critical in software development when using outsource resources is finding a way to communicate not only verbally but visually, DesignerVista gave us that. It also greatly cut down on development costs associated with planning since we can do the entire mock-up screens in house on the fly. Even when brain storming we find this to be a critical tool in laying out the ideas. Awesome product and for the price it was too good pass up.

DesignerVista is very intuitive and easy to use

First, let me say that I am very pleased with DesignerVista and am excitedly exploring version 1.2.
I am a certified usability engineer responsible for designing and revamping the graphical user interface for
a major government system. What DesignerVista has allowed me to do is to optimize my design layout skills
without requiring software development or graphic artists skills. It has an enormous and growing repository
of web and software application design "widgets" that I can layout, manipulate, and customize to create highly
usable and efficient user interfaces.

Speaking as a usability engineer, DesignerVista is very intuitive and
easy to use. It also allows me to create my own icons from it's library. It has also greatly improved
how I am developing our UI specification. Prior to DesignerVista, I would hand-hack a design and ask the
developers to code it. Then once the code was refined and finalized, we would create screenshot to be
included in the UI spec. With DesignerVista, I can create the design myself much faster, include the screenshot,
and then hand the design to the developers to code. DesignerVista is an excellent, reasonably priced product that
has increase my efficiency and productivity immensely.

Saves my time

Before DesignerVista, it was hard to relay and design software enhancement solutions in a visual format without using time consuming tools. This application has sped up my productivity considerably. I enjoy the interface that DesignerVista offers and its time saving features. I design my ideas in DesignerVista, define additional requirements not visual until now and present my work in clean, crisp fashion giving all stakeholders a clear understanding of the proposed feature enhancement. DesignerVista has helped me become a better software engineer.

Quick prototype tool

Using designer Vista helped us achieve a 4-month turn around on a project that would normally have taken 8 or 9 months to complete. It was awesome.

Very impressed

I just tried the demo and was very impressed! Having done Visual Studio GUIs in the past, there was so much programming behind the scenes that it discouraged creativity in the GUI design; DesignerVista removes all of those barriers!.
